How do Limited Partnership Agreements Work?
Limited partnership agreements are agreements between a limited partner (LP) and a general partner (GP).
Limited partners are the investors in a private equity firm. As discussed previously (Video #3), these are institutions (pensions, endowments, foundations) or individuals (family offices, select high net worth individuals).
The general partner is the private equity firm. (Video #5 discusses the details of private equity firms.)
The LP and the GP join in a limited partnership agreement to form a private equity fund, with the purpose of investing in companies. Once an investment in a company has been made, it becomes a portfolio company of the private equity fund.
The LP has limited liability and does not give the private equity fund all the money up front. For example; if the LP commits $50 million in capital to the private equity fund, it might, initially, only give $10 to $20 million of this capital. The fund, as the GP finds additional investments, will call for additional capital from the LP. The LP is committed to giving all the capital, as per the original limited partnership agreement, over the length of the fund. A private equity fund length is usually seven to ten years or longer if rolled over.
This doesn’t mean that the LP has no exit options from the commitment since there is a secondary market for private equity investors. The LP, if it has already made investments and has future commitments, can sell the investments it has made along with the commitments, to another limited partner, in a LP secondary.
The LP can also divide the sale up in a structured secondary, an example of which is when the LP holds onto the existing investments that the funds made but sells the future commitments.
The ILPA (Institutional Limited Partners Association) website is an excellent resource for further information regarding LP agreements. In addition to representing 300 LPs worldwide, comprising over a trillion dollars of assets in private equity, the ILPA website shows forms for capital calls, best practices for LP agreements and much, much more.

In this video I answer a question from one my readers who asked:
"Hi,
Hope you folks can help me here. I started up a business which is developing several very useful and desirable products. I have invested a good deal of my own time and money and now need some modest funding to really get things going.
I have a number of people who are very open to making an investment in my business but they are waiting for a proposal of what I can offer. I have a business plan prepared but I need some assistance to help me to structure to some type of offering. I guess I'm looking for some type of private placement memorandum structure, except that I don't want to issue stock.
I was thinking of offering very attractive returns on a loan plus a provision for a revenue sharing note. Or possibly even revenue sharing preferred shares as mentioned in an article on this site.
I'm not an attorney and I really can't afford to hire one for this purpose. So I was hoping there might be some resources available to help me to structure something which is both fair to the investor and my company and which properly documents the terms and conditions.
Really enjoy reading the posts and articles here and appreciate any assistance which can be provided.
Best,
Jay"

A structured settlement is a negotiated settlement of a personal injury claim in which the defendant agrees to make certain periodic payments to the plaintiff in exchange for a release of liability. To construct a structured settlement, all parties of the claim negotiate an arrangement that matches a series of scheduled payments to the plaintiff's needs.
Typically, annuities from a life insurance company are purchased to fund the defendant's obligation of periodic payments. These funding vehicles can produce a stream of periodic payments to the plaintiff. Structured settlements can be very simple, while some arrangements can be quite detailed.
Regardless of a particular settlement's design, structured settlements may have distinct advantages over an immediate lump sum. In most cases, both the defendant and the plaintiff will benefit.
The defendant (who may be a corporation, liability insurer or government agency) benefits through a faster, more efficient resolution, reducing the cost of prolonged litigation. Also, by assigning the obligation of payment to a financially sound third party, the defense can feel secure knowing all future payments will be met.
A mutual insurance company is a company that is not publicly traded. It therefore has no stock to be bought and sold and no shareholders.Instead, policyholders share in the ownership of the company. For this reason, unlike publicly owned companies that manage their business for the benefit of shareholders, we are guided by the longer term needs and expectations of our policyholders and payees. This makes New York Life, essentially, a partner in your long-term planning.
New York Life Insurance Company is a mutual insurance company, which means it is not publicly traded and has no shareholders. Instead, its policy owners are the ones who share in ownership rights of the company. With a mutual company, clients who purchase participating products are entitled to vote in the board of directors elections and are eligible to share in annual dividends that are declared. The company's priority is to safeguard their interests. Policies issued by our subsidiary companies are not participating and do not share in these rights.
Figure encompasses all policy owners of New York Life Insurance Company (NYLIC) and its insurance company subsidiaries. New York Life's company strength is based on several factors, including insurance in force.
Selling your structured settlement or annuity payments can be the solution to a range of financial troubles. Whether you're thinking of buying a house, starting a small business, paying off debt or student loans, using a portion of your future payments can help you get back in control. When you face a serious need, accessing your annuity can be better than putting your life on hold. Get money today by selling your payments, so you can improve your home or get the kids through college — without waiting.
Some believe that the growth of student loan debt is reaching problematic levels. Economists point to a drag on the economy as a whole because of high levels of student debt. One way that has been suggested to help students with loan repayment is to lower interest on balances. U.S. SenatorRichard Blumenthal urged, "We must reduce the student loan interest rate back to 3.4 percent immediately, and then even lower, and develop ways for past students to reduce and erase the $1 trillion in existing debt. The failure of Congress to act now threatens our all too slow and fragile economic recovery and job creation." Another way to deal with debt to income levels is to require higher learning accountability. "Only recently have government regulators demanded accountability for the educational benefits universities produce and the efficiency with which they produce them: What does college cost? How many students are admitted? How many graduate? How long does it take them to graduate? How many get good jobs? At the same time, accrediting bodies have changed their measurement emphasis from inputs and activities to outcomes...

Charles Vethan: Hi, I’m Charles Vethan. Welcome to the Vethan Law FirmP.C.’s VideoEducational Series. Today’s topic is the importance of shareholder and partnership agreements. Joseph, every growing business whether it’s a corporation and LLC, a joint venture or limited partnership, if they are growing, they need a thought out structured and negotiated company agreement. Can you give us some reasons as to why someone would want that?
Joseph Colvin: Frankly it’s because, when you start a business, you know who you are dealing with. There are certain events in life that can arise and suddenly you may have someone unexpected sitting at the business table with you. There’s five common situations, where this can arise. Obviously, if your partner dies, if one of you, or yourself or your partner get’s a divorce, if perhaps a shareholder wants to sell to a third party that’s referred to as a disposition. The other situation as we mentioned in the previous video segment was fiduciary duty issues that arise and finally what happens when an active shareholder or partner in a business becomes disabled. You have to be able answer these questions before those questions arise.
Charles: In the situation of a divorce Joseph, many states like Texas are community property states. If the business owner, starts his or her business after they are married, then the spouse has an equal ownership right in the company. One of the things a partner wants to make sure is that if one of the business partners has a divorce, then some type of agreement addresses that issue. What will happen to make sure that the interest of the divorcing partner is not awarded at least up to 50% to his or her spouse? And all of a sudden, you have the spouse now sitting at the management table making decisions. Not only it is awkward but also it could be detrimental to the business.
Joseph: Same scenario is what happens when your partner dies? I know about this insurance commercial about his 26-year old ne'er-do-well son now owning half the company. There are ways to avoid that apocalyptic situation. In addition, we mentioned earlier, disability, what happens when an active partner has to become a passive partner? Your business has to be able to address that issue in order to survive.
Charles: This is an issue that is fairly litigated. If you choose to have disability probation in your agreement, this issue now becomes who defines who defines what the disability is? Does the physical disability prevents someone from operating functionally in a business or someone has to adjudicate the disability is that a court or is that determined by an insurance policy and is there something set aside to take care of their business parent who becomes disabled.
Joseph: The final disposition is how do you deal with a partner wanting to sell? Maybe they want to move on. What controls how and when and if they can bring ina third party to sit down at the table with you.
Charles: That’s an issue that’s also litigated quite a bit is because the shareholders or business partners have to decide an evaluation method. Here’s the problem, a lot of these companies are privately held companies, which means you have one or two people who’ve developed the company and are probably driving the business. If those are the individuals who are leaving due to one of the situations that we’ve discussed, is it fair to have that company valued the same way that a public company would be, which is much bigger in scope? These are some of the issues that we deal with in our corporate law division.
Joseph: All of these can be dealt with in a simple, concise, corporate, shareholder or membership agreement. We address all of these issues on our day to day practice. You can find more information about this in our other topics at www.vethanlaw.com.

A structured settlement is a negotiated financial or insurance arrangement whereby a claimant agrees to resolve a personal injury tort claim by receiving some part of the settlement in the form of periodic payments on an agreed schedule, rather than as a lump sum.
Applications for approval of structured settlement agreements must be filed using the BIIA's electronic filing system. The application sets forth the information necessary to timely process
a request for approval. Applications received by any other method will not be considered.

Agreement (linguistics)

Agreement or concord happens when a word changes form depending on the other words to which it relates. It is an instance of inflection, and usually involves making the value of some grammatical category (such as gender or person) "agree" between varied words or parts of the sentence.

For example, in Standard English, one may say I am or he is, but not "I is" or "he am". This is because the grammar of the language requires that the verb and its subject agree in person. The pronouns I and he are first and third person respectively, as are the verb forms am and is. The verb form must be selected so that it has the same person as the subject.

The agreement based on overt grammatical categories as above is formal agreement, in contrast to notional agreement, which is based on meaning. For instance, in American English the phrase The United Nations is treated as singular for purposes of agreement even though it is formally plural.

By category

Agreement generally involves matching the value of some grammatical category between different constituents of a sentence (or sometimes between sentences, as in some cases where a pronoun is required to agree with its antecedent or referent). Some categories that commonly trigger grammatical agreement are noted below.

BOOK REVIEW
DRAFTING COMMERCIAL AGREEMENTS
Fourth Edition
By Richard Christou
ISBN: 978-1-847-03610-0
Thomson ReutersSweet & Maxwell
www.sweetandmaxwell.co.uk
COMMERCIAL LAWYER- HERES EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE COMPLEXITIES OF COMMERCIAL AGREEMENTS!
An appreciation by Phillip TaylorMBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond GreenChambers
When your day to day workload involves the drafting and negotiation of legal documents governing the business relationships of your clients, the new 2009 edition of Richard Christous DraftingCommercial Agreements will function superbly as your practical guide and mentor to go with his other definitive work Sale and Supply of Goods and Services which we reviewed when we met him two years ago.
Retaining the same scope and purpose as previous editions of Christou on Drafting, the fourth edition, five years after the last one, aims to continue to provide all the essential precedents in one volume. Its accompanied by the necessary legal commentary and explanation in 18 chapters, divided in four parts, covering virtually every commercial and business relationship you are likely to encounter within your practice.
Since the last edition was published in 2004, it has been completely updated to include the latest developments in statute and case law; for example exclusion and limitation clauses in both consumer and business to business relationships. Also noteworthy is that the new volume also incorporates changes in employment law over the intervening years including pensions and transfer of undertakings.
This is a scholarly, reliable and logically structured resource ably written by Richard and assisted by Robert Crossley, both of whom are experts in this field of law. The work covers, both extensively and intensively, four basic areas: the supply of goods and servicesagency and distributionmergers and acquisitionsand other commercial agreements, including joint ventures, confidentiality agreements, employment contracts, teaming agreements, securities for debts, dispute resolution and settlement and technology licensing agreements.
All recent legislation and case law is incorporated into the precedents and commentary -- and reference is made to EU legislation and decisions by the Commission. Do note that when you need to come to grips with that quaintly titled Unfair Contract Terms Act (UCTA), highly experienced solicitor that he is, Richard Christou provides the definitive explication and analysis of the Act under virtually every category, from test of reasonableness to EC law considerations.
In this the definitive work of reference on the subject of commercial agreements, youll find copious Tables of Statutes, Statutory Instruments, Cases and European Community Legislation therein.
There is a most useful accompanying CD which will save much time, and comes with a helpline link containing data files of the clauses in this almost 800 page volume- but it is not as heavy as it looks! The law is generally stated as at September 2009 and remains an excellent guide through the complexities of drafting your commercial agreements as used and accepted in modern practice.

Liverpool close to reaching an agreement over structured deal with southampton for virgil van dijk
Liverpool are reportedly close to agreeing to a deal with Southampton in signing their defender Virgil van Dijk in January. According to the Sunday World via the Irish Independent, the Reds have made a breakthrough in talks with the Saints over the 26-year-old. The SouthCoast club slapped a £70m ($93.6m) asking price for Van Dijk as he continues to attract interest. The Dutch international was a transfer target for the Merseyside club in the summer.Apart from the Reds, Manchester City and Chelsea were looking to secure the centre-back's signature before the start of the season. Liverpool were believed to have won the race for his signature, but were forced to end any interest in the player after the South Coast club reported them to the Premier League for the alleged illegal approach in landing Van Dijk. The Anfield outfit even issued a public apology for any "misunderstanding."Southampton star remains a priority target for Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp. It is believed the Saints ar...

4. How do Limited Partnership Agreements Work?

How do Limited Partnership Agreements Work?
Limited partnership agreements are agreements between a limited partner (LP) and a general partner (GP).
Limited partners are the investors in a private equity firm. As discussed previously (Video #3), these are institutions (pensions, endowments, foundations) or individuals (family offices, select high net worth individuals).
The general partner is the private equity firm. (Video #5 discusses the details of private equity firms.)
The LP and the GP join in a limited partnership agreement to form a private equity fund, with the purpose of investing in companies. Once an investment in a company has been made, it becomes a portfolio company of the private equity fund.
The LP has limited liability and does not give the private equity fund all...

structured settlement agreement

published: 25 Jan 2016

structured settlement agreement

A structured settlement is a negotiated settlement of a personal injury claim in which the defendant agrees to make certain periodic payments to the plaintiff in exchange for a release of liability. To construct a structured settlement, all parties of the claim negotiate an arrangement that matches a series of scheduled payments to the plaintiff's needs.
Typically, annuities from a life insurance company are purchased to fund the defendant's obligation of periodic payments. These funding vehicles can produce a stream of periodic payments to the plaintiff. Structured settlements can be very simple, while some arrangements can be quite detailed.
Regardless of a particular settlement's design, structured settlements may have distinct advantages over an immediate lump sum. In most cases, both...

The Importance of Shareholder and Partnership Agreements

Charles Vethan: Hi, I’m Charles Vethan. Welcome to the Vethan Law FirmP.C.’s VideoEducational Series. Today’s topic is the importance of shareholder and partnership agreements. Joseph, every growing business whether it’s a corporation and LLC, a joint venture or limited partnership, if they are growing, they need a thought out structured and negotiated company agreement. Can you give us some reasons as to why someone would want that?
Joseph Colvin: Frankly it’s because, when you start a business, you know who you are dealing with. There are certain events in life that can arise and suddenly you may have someone unexpected sitting at the business table with you. There’s five common situations, where this can arise. Obviously, if your partner dies, if one of you, or yourself or your part...

How do Limited Partnership Agreements Work?
Limited partnership agreements are agreements between a limited partner (LP) and a general partner (GP).
Limited partners are the investors in a private equity firm. As discussed previously (Video #3), these are institutions (pensions, endowments, foundations) or individuals (family offices, select high net worth individuals).
The general partner is the private equity firm. (Video #5 discusses the details of private equity firms.)
The LP and the GP join in a limited partnership agreement to form a private equity fund, with the purpose of investing in companies. Once an investment in a company has been made, it becomes a portfolio company of the private equity fund.
The LP has limited liability and does not give the private equity fund all the money up front. For example; if the LP commits $50 million in capital to the private equity fund, it might, initially, only give $10 to $20 million of this capital. The fund, as the GP finds additional investments, will call for additional capital from the LP. The LP is committed to giving all the capital, as per the original limited partnership agreement, over the length of the fund. A private equity fund length is usually seven to ten years or longer if rolled over.
This doesn’t mean that the LP has no exit options from the commitment since there is a secondary market for private equity investors. The LP, if it has already made investments and has future commitments, can sell the investments it has made along with the commitments, to another limited partner, in a LP secondary.
The LP can also divide the sale up in a structured secondary, an example of which is when the LP holds onto the existing investments that the funds made but sells the future commitments.
The ILPA (Institutional Limited Partners Association) website is an excellent resource for further information regarding LP agreements. In addition to representing 300 LPs worldwide, comprising over a trillion dollars of assets in private equity, the ILPA website shows forms for capital calls, best practices for LP agreements and much, much more.

In this video I answer a question from one my readers who asked:
"Hi,
Hope you folks can help me here. I started up a business which is developing several very useful and desirable products. I have invested a good deal of my own time and money and now need some modest funding to really get things going.
I have a number of people who are very open to making an investment in my business but they are waiting for a proposal of what I can offer. I have a business plan prepared but I need some assistance to help me to structure to some type of offering. I guess I'm looking for some type of private placement memorandum structure, except that I don't want to issue stock.
I was thinking of offering very attractive returns on a loan plus a provision for a revenue sharing note. Or possibly even revenue sharing preferred shares as mentioned in an article on this site.
I'm not an attorney and I really can't afford to hire one for this purpose. So I was hoping there might be some resources available to help me to structure something which is both fair to the investor and my company and which properly documents the terms and conditions.
Really enjoy reading the posts and articles here and appreciate any assistance which can be provided.

A structured settlement is a negotiated settlement of a personal injury claim in which the defendant agrees to make certain periodic payments to the plaintiff in exchange for a release of liability. To construct a structured settlement, all parties of the claim negotiate an arrangement that matches a series of scheduled payments to the plaintiff's needs.
Typically, annuities from a life insurance company are purchased to fund the defendant's obligation of periodic payments. These funding vehicles can produce a stream of periodic payments to the plaintiff. Structured settlements can be very simple, while some arrangements can be quite detailed.
Regardless of a particular settlement's design, structured settlements may have distinct advantages over an immediate lump sum. In most cases, both the defendant and the plaintiff will benefit.
The defendant (who may be a corporation, liability insurer or government agency) benefits through a faster, more efficient resolution, reducing the cost of prolonged litigation. Also, by assigning the obligation of payment to a financially sound third party, the defense can feel secure knowing all future payments will be met.
A mutual insurance company is a company that is not publicly traded. It therefore has no stock to be bought and sold and no shareholders.Instead, policyholders share in the ownership of the company. For this reason, unlike publicly owned companies that manage their business for the benefit of shareholders, we are guided by the longer term needs and expectations of our policyholders and payees. This makes New York Life, essentially, a partner in your long-term planning.
New York Life Insurance Company is a mutual insurance company, which means it is not publicly traded and has no shareholders. Instead, its policy owners are the ones who share in ownership rights of the company. With a mutual company, clients who purchase participating products are entitled to vote in the board of directors elections and are eligible to share in annual dividends that are declared. The company's priority is to safeguard their interests. Policies issued by our subsidiary companies are not participating and do not share in these rights.
Figure encompasses all policy owners of New York Life Insurance Company (NYLIC) and its insurance company subsidiaries. New York Life's company strength is based on several factors, including insurance in force.
Selling your structured settlement or annuity payments can be the solution to a range of financial troubles. Whether you're thinking of buying a house, starting a small business, paying off debt or student loans, using a portion of your future payments can help you get back in control. When you face a serious need, accessing your annuity can be better than putting your life on hold. Get money today by selling your payments, so you can improve your home or get the kids through college — without waiting.
Some believe that the growth of student loan debt is reaching problematic levels. Economists point to a drag on the economy as a whole because of high levels of student debt. One way that has been suggested to help students with loan repayment is to lower interest on balances. U.S. SenatorRichard Blumenthal urged, "We must reduce the student loan interest rate back to 3.4 percent immediately, and then even lower, and develop ways for past students to reduce and erase the $1 trillion in existing debt. The failure of Congress to act now threatens our all too slow and fragile economic recovery and job creation." Another way to deal with debt to income levels is to require higher learning accountability. "Only recently have government regulators demanded accountability for the educational benefits universities produce and the efficiency with which they produce them: What does college cost? How many students are admitted? How many graduate? How long does it take them to graduate? How many get good jobs?

Charles Vethan: Hi, I’m Charles Vethan. Welcome to the Vethan Law FirmP.C.’s VideoEducational Series. Today’s topic is the importance of shareholder and partnership agreements. Joseph, every growing business whether it’s a corporation and LLC, a joint venture or limited partnership, if they are growing, they need a thought out structured and negotiated company agreement. Can you give us some reasons as to why someone would want that?
Joseph Colvin: Frankly it’s because, when you start a business, you know who you are dealing with. There are certain events in life that can arise and suddenly you may have someone unexpected sitting at the business table with you. There’s five common situations, where this can arise. Obviously, if your partner dies, if one of you, or yourself or your partner get’s a divorce, if perhaps a shareholder wants to sell to a third party that’s referred to as a disposition. The other situation as we mentioned in the previous video segment was fiduciary duty issues that arise and finally what happens when an active shareholder or partner in a business becomes disabled. You have to be able answer these questions before those questions arise.
Charles: In the situation of a divorce Joseph, many states like Texas are community property states. If the business owner, starts his or her business after they are married, then the spouse has an equal ownership right in the company. One of the things a partner wants to make sure is that if one of the business partners has a divorce, then some type of agreement addresses that issue. What will happen to make sure that the interest of the divorcing partner is not awarded at least up to 50% to his or her spouse? And all of a sudden, you have the spouse now sitting at the management table making decisions. Not only it is awkward but also it could be detrimental to the business.
Joseph: Same scenario is what happens when your partner dies? I know about this insurance commercial about his 26-year old ne'er-do-well son now owning half the company. There are ways to avoid that apocalyptic situation. In addition, we mentioned earlier, disability, what happens when an active partner has to become a passive partner? Your business has to be able to address that issue in order to survive.
Charles: This is an issue that is fairly litigated. If you choose to have disability probation in your agreement, this issue now becomes who defines who defines what the disability is? Does the physical disability prevents someone from operating functionally in a business or someone has to adjudicate the disability is that a court or is that determined by an insurance policy and is there something set aside to take care of their business parent who becomes disabled.
Joseph: The final disposition is how do you deal with a partner wanting to sell? Maybe they want to move on. What controls how and when and if they can bring ina third party to sit down at the table with you.
Charles: That’s an issue that’s also litigated quite a bit is because the shareholders or business partners have to decide an evaluation method. Here’s the problem, a lot of these companies are privately held companies, which means you have one or two people who’ve developed the company and are probably driving the business. If those are the individuals who are leaving due to one of the situations that we’ve discussed, is it fair to have that company valued the same way that a public company would be, which is much bigger in scope? These are some of the issues that we deal with in our corporate law division.
Joseph: All of these can be dealt with in a simple, concise, corporate, shareholder or membership agreement. We address all of these issues on our day to day practice. You can find more information about this in our other topics at www.vethanlaw.com.

BOOK REVIEW
DRAFTING COMMERCIAL AGREEMENTS
Fourth Edition

COMMERCIAL LAWYER- HERES EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE COMPLEXITIES OF COMMERCIAL AGREEMENTS!
An appreciation by Phillip TaylorMBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond GreenChambers
When your day to day workload involves the drafting and negotiation of legal documents governing the business relationships of your clients, the new 2009 edition of Richard Christous DraftingCommercial Agreements will function superbly as your practical guide and mentor to go with his other definitive work Sale and Supply of Goods and Services which we reviewed when we met him two years ago.
Retaining the same scope and purpose as previous editions of Christou on Drafting, the fourth edition, five years after the last one, aims to continue to provide all the essential precedents in one volume. Its accompanied by the necessary legal commentary and explanation in 18 chapters, divided in four parts, covering virtually every commercial and business relationship you are likely to encounter within your practice.
Since the last edition was published in 2004, it has been completely updated to include the latest developments in statute and case law; for example exclusion and limitation clauses in both consumer and business to business relationships. Also noteworthy is that the new volume also incorporates changes in employment law over the intervening years including pensions and transfer of undertakings.
This is a scholarly, reliable and logically structured resource ably written by Richard and assisted by Robert Crossley, both of whom are experts in this field of law. The work covers, both extensively and intensively, four basic areas: the supply of goods and servicesagency and distributionmergers and acquisitionsand other commercial agreements, including joint ventures, confidentiality agreements, employment contracts, teaming agreements, securities for debts, dispute resolution and settlement and technology licensing agreements.
All recent legislation and case law is incorporated into the precedents and commentary -- and reference is made to EU legislation and decisions by the Commission.

COMMERCIAL LAWYER- HERES EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE COMPLEXITIES OF COMMERCIAL AGREEMENTS!
An appreciation by Phillip TaylorMBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond GreenChambers
When your day to day workload involves the drafting and negotiation of legal documents governing the business relationships of your clients, the new 2009 edition of Richard Christous DraftingCommercial Agreements will function superbly as your practical guide and mentor to go with his other definitive work Sale and Supply of Goods and Services which we reviewed when we met him two years ago.
Retaining the same scope and purpose as previous editions of Christou on Drafting, the fourth edition, five years after the last one, aims to continue to provide all the essential precedents in one volume. Its accompanied by the necessary legal commentary and explanation in 18 chapters, divided in four parts, covering virtually every commercial and business relationship you are likely to encounter within your practice.
Since the last edition was published in 2004, it has been completely updated to include the latest developments in statute and case law; for example exclusion and limitation clauses in both consumer and business to business relationships. Also noteworthy is that the new volume also incorporates changes in employment law over the intervening years including pensions and transfer of undertakings.
This is a scholarly, reliable and logically structured resource ably written by Richard and assisted by Robert Crossley, both of whom are experts in this field of law. The work covers, both extensively and intensively, four basic areas: the supply of goods and servicesagency and distributionmergers and acquisitionsand other commercial agreements, including joint ventures, confidentiality agreements, employment contracts, teaming agreements, securities for debts, dispute resolution and settlement and technology licensing agreements.

Finance and capital markets on Khan Academy: Interest is the basis of modern capital markets. Depending on whether you are lending or borrowing, it can be viewed as a return on an asset (lending) or the cost of capital (borrowing). This tutorial gives an introduction to this fundamental concept, including what it means to compound. It also gives a rule of thumb that might make it easy to do some rough interest calculations in your head.

4. How do Limited Partnership Agreements Work?

How do Limited Partnership Agreements Work?
Limited partnership agreements are agreements between a limited partner (LP) and a general partner (GP).
Limited partners are the investors in a private equity firm. As discussed previously (Video #3), these are institutions (pensions, endowments, foundations) or individuals (family offices, select high net worth individuals).
The general partner is the private equity firm. (Video #5 discusses the details of private equity firms.)
The LP and the GP join in a limited partnership agreement to form a private equity fund, with the purpose of investing in companies. Once an investment in a company has been made, it becomes a portfolio company of the private equity fund.
The LP has limited liability and does not give the private equity fund all the money up front. For example; if the LP commits $50 million in capital to the private equity fund, it might, initially, only give $10 to $20 million of this capital. The fund, as the GP finds additional investments, will call for additional capital from the LP. The LP is committed to giving all the capital, as per the original limited partnership agreement, over the length of the fund. A private equity fund length is usually seven to ten years or longer if rolled over.
This doesn’t mean that the LP has no exit options from the commitment since there is a secondary market for private equity investors. The LP, if it has already made investments and has future commitments, can sell the investments it has made along with the commitments, to another limited partner, in a LP secondary.
The LP can also divide the sale up in a structured secondary, an example of which is when the LP holds onto the existing investments that the funds made but sells the future commitments.
The ILPA (Institutional Limited Partners Association) website is an excellent resource for further information regarding LP agreements. In addition to representing 300 LPs worldwide, comprising over a trillion dollars of assets in private equity, the ILPA website shows forms for capital calls, best practices for LP agreements and much, much more.

Shareholders Agreement - What structure should you use for investors? Ask Evan

http://www.evancarmichael.com/Masters/ - NEWEST VIDEO
Like this video? Please give it a thumbs up below and/or leave a comment - Thank you!!!
In this video I answer a question from one my readers who asked:
"Hi,
Hope you folks can help me here. I started up a business which is developing several very useful and desirable products. I have invested a good deal of my own time and money and now need some modest funding to really get things going.
I have a number of people who are very open to making an investment in my business but they are waiting for a proposal of what I can offer. I have a business plan prepared but I need some assistance to help me to structure to some type of offering. I guess I'm looking for some type of private placement memorandum structure, except that I don't want to issue stock.
I was thinking of offering very attractive returns on a loan plus a provision for a revenue sharing note. Or possibly even revenue sharing preferred shares as mentioned in an article on this site.
I'm not an attorney and I really can't afford to hire one for this purpose. So I was hoping there might be some resources available to help me to structure something which is both fair to the investor and my company and which properly documents the terms and conditions.
Really enjoy reading the posts and articles here and appreciate any assistance which can be provided.
Best,
Jay"

structured settlement agreement

A structured settlement is a negotiated settlement of a personal injury claim in which the defendant agrees to make certain periodic payments to the plaintiff in exchange for a release of liability. To construct a structured settlement, all parties of the claim negotiate an arrangement that matches a series of scheduled payments to the plaintiff's needs.
Typically, annuities from a life insurance company are purchased to fund the defendant's obligation of periodic payments. These funding vehicles can produce a stream of periodic payments to the plaintiff. Structured settlements can be very simple, while some arrangements can be quite detailed.
Regardless of a particular settlement's design, structured settlements may have distinct advantages over an immediate lump sum. In most cases, both the defendant and the plaintiff will benefit.
The defendant (who may be a corporation, liability insurer or government agency) benefits through a faster, more efficient resolution, reducing the cost of prolonged litigation. Also, by assigning the obligation of payment to a financially sound third party, the defense can feel secure knowing all future payments will be met.
A mutual insurance company is a company that is not publicly traded. It therefore has no stock to be bought and sold and no shareholders.Instead, policyholders share in the ownership of the company. For this reason, unlike publicly owned companies that manage their business for the benefit of shareholders, we are guided by the longer term needs and expectations of our policyholders and payees. This makes New York Life, essentially, a partner in your long-term planning.
New York Life Insurance Company is a mutual insurance company, which means it is not publicly traded and has no shareholders. Instead, its policy owners are the ones who share in ownership rights of the company. With a mutual company, clients who purchase participating products are entitled to vote in the board of directors elections and are eligible to share in annual dividends that are declared. The company's priority is to safeguard their interests. Policies issued by our subsidiary companies are not participating and do not share in these rights.
Figure encompasses all policy owners of New York Life Insurance Company (NYLIC) and its insurance company subsidiaries. New York Life's company strength is based on several factors, including insurance in force.
Selling your structured settlement or annuity payments can be the solution to a range of financial troubles. Whether you're thinking of buying a house, starting a small business, paying off debt or student loans, using a portion of your future payments can help you get back in control. When you face a serious need, accessing your annuity can be better than putting your life on hold. Get money today by selling your payments, so you can improve your home or get the kids through college — without waiting.
Some believe that the growth of student loan debt is reaching problematic levels. Economists point to a drag on the economy as a whole because of high levels of student debt. One way that has been suggested to help students with loan repayment is to lower interest on balances. U.S. SenatorRichard Blumenthal urged, "We must reduce the student loan interest rate back to 3.4 percent immediately, and then even lower, and develop ways for past students to reduce and erase the $1 trillion in existing debt. The failure of Congress to act now threatens our all too slow and fragile economic recovery and job creation." Another way to deal with debt to income levels is to require higher learning accountability. "Only recently have government regulators demanded accountability for the educational benefits universities produce and the efficiency with which they produce them: What does college cost? How many students are admitted? How many graduate? How long does it take them to graduate? How many get good jobs? At the same time, accrediting bodies have changed their measurement emphasis from inputs and activities to outcomes...

The Importance of Shareholder and Partnership Agreements

Charles Vethan: Hi, I’m Charles Vethan. Welcome to the Vethan Law FirmP.C.’s VideoEducational Series. Today’s topic is the importance of shareholder and partnership agreements. Joseph, every growing business whether it’s a corporation and LLC, a joint venture or limited partnership, if they are growing, they need a thought out structured and negotiated company agreement. Can you give us some reasons as to why someone would want that?
Joseph Colvin: Frankly it’s because, when you start a business, you know who you are dealing with. There are certain events in life that can arise and suddenly you may have someone unexpected sitting at the business table with you. There’s five common situations, where this can arise. Obviously, if your partner dies, if one of you, or yourself or your partner get’s a divorce, if perhaps a shareholder wants to sell to a third party that’s referred to as a disposition. The other situation as we mentioned in the previous video segment was fiduciary duty issues that arise and finally what happens when an active shareholder or partner in a business becomes disabled. You have to be able answer these questions before those questions arise.
Charles: In the situation of a divorce Joseph, many states like Texas are community property states. If the business owner, starts his or her business after they are married, then the spouse has an equal ownership right in the company. One of the things a partner wants to make sure is that if one of the business partners has a divorce, then some type of agreement addresses that issue. What will happen to make sure that the interest of the divorcing partner is not awarded at least up to 50% to his or her spouse? And all of a sudden, you have the spouse now sitting at the management table making decisions. Not only it is awkward but also it could be detrimental to the business.
Joseph: Same scenario is what happens when your partner dies? I know about this insurance commercial about his 26-year old ne'er-do-well son now owning half the company. There are ways to avoid that apocalyptic situation. In addition, we mentioned earlier, disability, what happens when an active partner has to become a passive partner? Your business has to be able to address that issue in order to survive.
Charles: This is an issue that is fairly litigated. If you choose to have disability probation in your agreement, this issue now becomes who defines who defines what the disability is? Does the physical disability prevents someone from operating functionally in a business or someone has to adjudicate the disability is that a court or is that determined by an insurance policy and is there something set aside to take care of their business parent who becomes disabled.
Joseph: The final disposition is how do you deal with a partner wanting to sell? Maybe they want to move on. What controls how and when and if they can bring ina third party to sit down at the table with you.
Charles: That’s an issue that’s also litigated quite a bit is because the shareholders or business partners have to decide an evaluation method. Here’s the problem, a lot of these companies are privately held companies, which means you have one or two people who’ve developed the company and are probably driving the business. If those are the individuals who are leaving due to one of the situations that we’ve discussed, is it fair to have that company valued the same way that a public company would be, which is much bigger in scope? These are some of the issues that we deal with in our corporate law division.
Joseph: All of these can be dealt with in a simple, concise, corporate, shareholder or membership agreement. We address all of these issues on our day to day practice. You can find more information about this in our other topics at www.vethanlaw.com.

structured settlement agreement

A structured settlement is a negotiated financial or insurance arrangement whereby a claimant agrees to resolve a personal injury tort claim by receiving some part of the settlement in the form of periodic payments on an agreed schedule, rather than as a lump sum.
Applications for approval of structured settlement agreements must be filed using the BIIA's electronic filing system. The application sets forth the information necessary to timely process
a request for approval. Applications received by any other method will not be considered.
